Fun 80's horror that, despite the dated effects, is still enjoyable to watch today. Don't close the gate on this one!

I love this movie, so much nostalgic fun. Some of the effects hold up surprisingly well. If you like Monster Squad or a Goonies tone movie, you should have fun with this.

Watched yesterday, all i can remember: You’ve been BAD!!!

Fun to revisit for the last time

Years ago I saw this weird little flick and thought it was strange and disjointed had an awful ending but still found it appealing. After watching it again I've reached the same verdict. It's a bit creepy which has as much to do with the crappy picture quality as it does the story. It does feature some really interesting effects namely one where a zombie falls down face first hits the floor and breaks into about a dozen little demons who scatter about. Another features Glen who greets his father at the front door of their house only to have his father's head melt fall off and plop to the ground like a hunk of raw meat. The small demon men are weird creations especially when they gang up on Terry who has fallen into the demons' hole in the backyard. The stop-motion "super-demon" is impressive too. But Glen's monster-slaying model rocket ahh...not so much. If you want to see a decent but sort of cheesy '80s horror movie "The Gate" should satisfy your need.
